Show that the function f defined by f(x)={(x if "x is rational"),(-x if "x is irrational"):} is continuous at x=0 AAxne0inR

Answer»

Solution :f(0)=0
L.H.L=`lim_(xto0)f(x)=lim_(hto0)f(-h)`
`=lim_(hto0){(-h if "h is RATIONAL" =0),(h if "h is irrational"):}`
Similarly R.H.L.=0
THUS L.H.L.=R.H.L.=f(0)
Hence f(x) is continuous at x=0
We can easily show that f(x) is discontinuous at all real POINTS `xne0`
